This educational project for home economics students is knowm as the national meat .story conte.st, and, ac cording to Miss I^ng, is of material assistance in developing a well-round ed study of this subject in food clas.ses. Inaugurated in 1924 by the National Live Stock and Meat Board and conducted in cooperation with teachers, the event is said to have increa.sed yearly in .scope and [popu larity.

After several interesting rounds, the hostess, assisted by Mrs. King, served a tempting^ salad course and Russian tea. YorkA’ille was represented by one of its chief exl'cutives there. The realistic fact is, that after spending several hours trying to load the huge elephant dn .a truck, the show Ijad to. call for the larger power equipment and cables. The truck which was to carry her to the grave was sunk by excavating under its wheels, and a ramp was built from its body to the ground near the elephan tine corpse. The body of the truck was replaced with heavy timbers on its chassis. With an inch and a half manilla cable around the elephant, another truck was hitched on to pull her upon the truck. The hauling truck stalled, and the big cable broke. Then the telephone brought to winter quarters city Flengineer J. Frank Faulkner, the big tractor, and a .strong steel cable u.sed at the water- "workK. These succeeded in rolling the elephant upon the carrier truck. It was then after 6 o’clock of Friday evening. The immense body lay on its back on the truck. At the grave, a cable was fastened around the legs and run through a block and tackle," with the line manned by the nine men. They rolled the elephant’.s body over into the grave upon its feet, and it sank to its knees. Next day the grave was filled in and its top rounded into a mound. It was too cold for spectators to go out there into the country, and no children witnessed the burial of the elephant which had carried mil lions of them during her life.—^York- ville Emjuirier.
